Hey XFiles - I agree with you completely. We have a neighbor who worked for GM for years and recently retired. He rubs our noses in it almost daily. Gambles thousands of dollars in casinos, travels with the "little woman" who incidently, rarely worked a day in her life. Yet they had the nerve to remind us that we need home repairs like the one's they are having done. It's sickening to watch them toss money around like it's growing on trees. Jealous? Darn right I am. We work our tails off and still live paycheck to paycheck. I'm not going to lose a minute of sleep over this yo-yo possibly losing some of his benefits - maybe the "little woman" might actually have to find a (gasp) job.
